2.3 General safety instructions
• Only cold water of potable water quality may be used to feed the system.
• All components must be stored dry within a temperature limit of -15° to 45° C (5 °F to 113 °F)
• The system must be sited in a frost-proof place and be protected from direct sunlight.
• The system must not come into contact with chemicals, solvents or other vapours.
• Before commissioning the filter system, the fed appliance must be free of lime.
• The filter cartridge must not be opened or damaged.
• Regardless of the residual capacity, the filter cartridge must be replaced if not used for more than 4 weeks and if not
flushed periodically with efficient volume (see table for flush volume).
• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system.
• After 5 years of use (latest 6 years after production date) the filter head and wall mounting bracket must be
replaced (this also applies to hoses and gaskets) – please check the date on the production stamp.
• After a longer downtime or maintenance works rinse the system thoroughly – see table for flush volume.

2.4 Assembly safety instructions
• Water pressure at the filter system inlet must not exceed 8 bar (116 psi). A pressure reducer must be installed on the
water supply side of the filter system if the inlet pressure exceeds 8 bar (116 psi).
• A shut-off valve must be installed upstream of the filter system.
• If a water softener is installed upstream, check if hardness is still available in the tapwater.
• No copper pipes, galvanised or nickel-coated pipes or intermediate parts may be installed between the filter system
and the point of dispense.
• All components must be installed according to country-specific guidelines. Check for compliance with state and local
laws and regulations.
• DIN 1988 should be noted for installing and operating the system.
• We recommend only using genuine accessory hoses for the Easy Head with 3/8" BSP connection because these
have a longer thread
• If the cartridge is removed from the filter head without being replaced by a new one, the water supply to the filter
head must be shut off.
• Do not connect any devices to the flush valve and/or flush hose.
• Notice for espresso coffee and vending machines: If copper or nickel coated copper parts are used in installations
their surfaces can migrate copper ions if in contact with water. Limestone coating deposits on contacting parts, such
as pipes or boilers, can also impact the level of migration. To avoid the migration of copper ions in the water we
recommend you avoid the use of copper or other nickel-coated copper materials. For installations which still consist
mainly of copper, brass or nickel-coated copper surfaces, we recommend to use only the Claris ULTRA filter
cartridge family or Claris PRIME.
